..do as the South Africans do?!
South
Africans eat Mopane worms; therefore I tried Mopane worms. I am pretty proud of
my worm eating abilities. For a girl who can barely handle eating a garden
tomato because the taste and texture weird's her out, this was a pretty big
achievement. My neighbor was even proud of me.
Lots of wormy love,

A few months ago I was more
than privileged to be able to travel to the country of Lesotho. For those of
you who do not know, Lesotho it is a landlocked country, completely enclosed by
South Africa. My YAGM group and I spent time hiking through a small rural
village, learning about schools, the countries history, culture and the poverty
that has stricken this small country.
While I was mesmerized by the
beauty surrounding me and the time spent with the locals, I was also feeling a
great sense of pride. I left the country feeling so proud of my friends and
professors at Wittenberg University who have given up weeks of their summers
and winter breaks to make a difference in the communities here. I am so encouraged by their passions for
Lesotho and pray that this passion to serve continues, both in and out of this
beautiful country.
Peace!
